Abstract: On November 3, 2016, two employees were picking up flags and golf balls on the "Pete Dye" golf course. Employee #1 started to drive away in the golf cart and Employee #2 ran and jumped on the back of the golf cart as it was moving away. Employee #2 slipped off of the back of the golf cart and suffered a fracture to their right ankle. The Employee was evaluated by EMS services but denied any further medical treatment. Approximately three days later on November 6, 2016, physicians conducted x-rays and determined that the victim's right ankle had a fracture. The fracture in the right ankle created a blood clot that ended up traveling up to their heart. On November 13,2016 Employee #2 passed away at home. The autopsy concluded that the employee died from a pre-existing enlarged heart condition and the blood clot caused his heart to stop.
